Ana Reservoir

Ana Reservoir in Lake County, Oregon

Emanating from cold, clear springs Ana Reservoir in the Summer Lake Wildlife Area is open to angling year round. Although it is in the Oregon high desert, Ana remains ice free most of the winter. Average water temperature is 52-degrees. It is stocked each year with catchable rainbows and every other year with hybrid white striped bass. Although some of the rainbows grow to respectable size in the rich environment in the 58-acre reservoir, most of the fishing action here centers around the white-striped bass hybrids. The state record 18-pound, 8-ounce white-striped bass was taken at Ana Reservoir in 1996.

Hatches: Calibaetis, damsels, dragons, midges, wooly buggers, leeches & midges for trout. Baitfish streamer patterns for striped bass.
